    Could you have it so that external links, have the attribute rel="noopener" or rel="noreferrer" so that the web page passes with Google Lighthouse (or associated tools).
    Especially when the plugin could be included on every page of a website, this is an issue we’d love to see updated.

    Hey @blueocto,

    While most of the links do have this, some links would be considered as having a specific purpose and would generally not need this. If you could let me know which specific links you feel should have this let me know and I will add this to be looked over for a future update if necessary.

    For now, please check out our custom Templating functionality where you can customize a template for your feed, adding this to the links that you want [link]. Do note that the templating functionality is only available in the Pro version for now so let me know if there are any critical links on your end you need changed, and in that case please provide a link to the page with the feed and I should be able to get something working for you here.

    Many thanks.

    Thanks for your response Joel. We’re finding it is being flagged on the hashtags, e.g.

    <p class="ctf-tweet-text" style="">...Tweet text... <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/clientname" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">#mydesiredhashtag</a></p>

    Yes they as noted as nofollow, but this still flags in the Lighthouse report. I shall feedback to my client about the Pro option. Thank you, I wasn’t aware of the templating option (we didn’t install the plugin!).

    Hey @blueocto,

    Thank you for the additional details here. I have made note of this to be changed going forward.

    If you like, let me know and I can also provide a small JavaScript snippet to add this to each link as well for now.

    Best regards,
